Chapter 79: Ice Dance and the Past
◎He has someone he likes◎
"Ice dance drama, it's not easy, right?" Liu Hui looked at Zhang Lilian with some worry, "Tiantian is still so young, and she has to bear so much..."
"I'm just making a suggestion. Tang Yi happens to have an ice rink, so we can practice wherever we want. If we practice well, we might be able to get sponsorship." Xu Chi smiled at Liu Hui, "Look, Tiantian has only been learning ice dancing for a short time, and she has already won a bronze medal in the Winter Olympics. Can an ice dance drama be as difficult as a bronze medal?"
"You're right." Liu Hui exhaled slowly, looking at Ji Tiantian with admiration and emotion, "Tiantian is the little girl who can create miracles."
"Well, it's a good thing for young people to have dreams, but don't forget to train." Xu Chi reminded again.
"I know." Ji Tian nodded.
After a group of people finished their meal, they came out of the restaurant and headed for the subway station. Liu Hui and Xu Chi walked together, Jiang Lin and Zhang Lilian walked together, and everyone was talking and laughing.
Ji Tiantian and Tang Yi walked at the back. Ji Tiantian looked at Tang Yi quietly, and Tang Yi caught her gaze and looked over.
"You...are you still unable to adapt?" Ji Tiantian hesitated for a moment and spoke in a low voice, "The matter between your mother and Coach Xu..."
"After the Winter Olympics, there will be no miracles that I cannot adapt to." Tang Yi paused, "What do you think about the dance troupe?"
"I'll tell you when the time comes. Where are you going to live in the future?"
"You can live in the school. But I should find a house between the ice rink and the training hall to rent for a while."
"Yeah. I probably won't live in school either." Ji Tiantian took a deep breath and looked up at the clear sky.
There are many things waiting for her to accomplish. She is like a little train, running forward non-stop. This feeling is really good.
In midsummer, Ji Tiantian ran around under the scorching sun and finally found a small theater with a good location that suited her taste.
She brought Chen Yusheng to visit the small theater.
"This theater is a little far from the city center, but it's not far from the nearest residential and commercial areas, so the rent is relatively cheap. If you rent it for a minimum of three months, the monthly rent is 150,000." Ji Tiantian turned to Chen Yusheng and smiled, "I decided to rent it, and then we will form a dance troupe together and use this theater for performances."
Forming a dance troupe together was her and Chen Yusheng's childhood dream, and it was something that had actually come true in their previous lives. Now, she not only wanted to realize this dream, but also to make it exceptionally brilliant.
"Great, you are worthy of being called Tiantian!" Chen Yusheng held Ji Tiantian's hands and shook them like she did when they were little. She shook them for a while and gradually fell into deep thought: "But the dance troupe is not famous at the beginning, so it will definitely lose money. We must be prepared... I will go back and tell my parents to help us pay more for the rent and labor costs."
Ji Tiantian looked at Chen Yusheng's thoughtful expression and couldn't help but smile.
In the previous life, the initial capital for her and Chen Yusheng was supported by Chen Yusheng's parents. Because of limited funds, they rented a theater in a remote area of South City with poor conditions. The stage was shabby and everyone fell a lot during the rehearsal. Later, they finally earned some money, which was all used to repair the stage.
"I'll cover the initial rent and labor costs." Ji Tiantian smiled. "Because of ice dance choreography and school performances, I also met a lot of elites in the circle. I believe they will help us promote and attract sponsorship. The loss shouldn't be too much."
They had the initial capital, connections, and knowledge. She believed in her own abilities and Chen Yusheng's ability to manage the dance troupe. They had all the conditions for a successful dance troupe.
No matter what, their lives will not become as difficult as in their previous lives.
"You're right. How could a big star who won a bronze medal at the Winter Olympics lose money?" Chen Yusheng smiled and nodded, "Then you will be the team leader from now on."
"No, Yu Sheng, you be the leader." Ji Tiantian shook her head. "I have to study and train, and I'm not as good as you in building connections. You will be mainly responsible for our dance troupe. I will also share with you the elites I know in the future."
"Oh, that's fine too. You can be the boss behind the scenes, and I'll be the executor. I'll get a fixed salary every month. Then when there's a profit, you can get the money first to make up for your expenses." Chen Yusheng reacted quickly and quickly decided on a cooperation model. "Then when you're not busy, you can also come and play one or two roles? Once the gimmick of the Winter Olympics bronze medal land performance is released, I think a large number of audiences will come to us with money."
"You're exaggerating." Ji Tiantian couldn't help but laugh along with Chen Yusheng.
"Some of our old classmates in South City haven't found jobs. I think we can let them join the dance troupe. What do you think?" Chen Yusheng asked after laughing for a while.
Ji Tiantian was absent-minded for a moment and didn't speak immediately.
"What's the matter?" Chen Yusheng asked.
"Have they all learned to skate?" Ji Tiantian blinked and asked. She remembered that her old classmate had told her that because of her, the Nancheng Dance School now offers figure skating classes.
"It seems so." Chen Yusheng nodded.
"I want them to join the rehearsal of the ice dance drama and practice team skating." Ji Tiantian looked at the stunned Chen Yusheng and couldn't help but smile. "I forgot to tell you before, Yusheng, I plan to build an ice and land dual-role dance troupe. You are responsible for the land performances, and I am responsible for the ice performances. We are each responsible for our own repertoires, but the recruitment of personnel, the promotion of the dance troupe, and the profit distribution are mainly responsible for you. You are the general director. During the day, I will bring the ice actors to the theater dance troupe for land rehearsals, which will be staggered with your rehearsal time, and make the best use of the theater. At night, the theater will be yours to perform. I will use Tang Yi's ice rink for performances. Do you think this is okay?"
This time, Chen Yusheng was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses.
"Listen, feel..." She took a deep breath before continuing, "It's especially good."
Ji Tiantian couldn't help but smile widely.
"I really think it's possible! We can do it!" Chen Yusheng excitedly held Ji Tiantian's hand, "We will create a unique dance troupe! Unprecedented, unprecedented! Dance drama... We can rehearse one version on land, and then rehearse another version on the ice! We can inspire each other! We won't have to worry about not having an audience!"
"That's what I think." Ji Tiantian smiled and nodded.
"Ahhh! I'm so happy!" Chen Yusheng happily ran to the theater stage and started dancing impromptu.
Ji Tiantian looked at her bestie dancing with so much passion and couldn't help but curl her lips. She had accomplished everything she wanted to do in her previous life.
"Yes, yes, there is one more thing. We need to give the dance troupe a name, right?" Chen Yusheng rushed down from the stage again and spoke to Ji Tiantian.
Ji Tiantian was a little confused for a moment. In her previous life, the name of the dance troupe she and Chen Yusheng formed was very simple, called South City Dancers. Most of the dancers in the troupe were from South City.
Now that their home ground has moved to the capital, they will recruit people from many places, so it doesn't seem appropriate to use this name anymore.
"I don't know how to name it either." Ji Tiantian frowned, and after struggling for a while, she suddenly came up with an idea. "There is a way of naming on the Internet, which is to match the color of the clothes with the food you just ate..."
"Then according to my way, it must be a green pancake."
The two were silent for a while, and Chen Yusheng suddenly spoke up: "Well, whether on the ice or on the ground, we are always dancing. I think the dance troupe should just be busy dancing!"
Ji Tiantian stared at Chen Yusheng in a daze. This simple-sounding name seemed to be prepared for her. Whether in her past life or in this life, she was busy dancing.
"Okay, just be busy dancing." Ji Tiantian gave Chen Yusheng a big smile.
"From today on, the Busy Dancing Ice and Land Dance Troupe is established!"
“Yeah!”
After returning home, Ji Tiantian told Zhang Lilian her idea, and Zhang Lilian naturally did not object.
The theater rent was not a small amount of money, but Ji Tiantian's personal property was also considerable. Zhang Lilian felt that her daughter had the right to decide how to spend the money she earned.
Just as Ji Tiantian had achieved results that ordinary people could not imagine, Zhang Lilian believed that Ji Tiantian would also make money in ways that ordinary people could not imagine.
Ji Tiantian told Tang Yi about her idea, and Tang Yi naturally supported her.
In this way, Ji Tiantian rented the theater. At the same time, Chen Yusheng began to contact people from all walks of life to promote the dance troupe and recruit actors.
I heard that this was a dance troupe founded by a Winter Olympics bronze medalist and his friends. Many investors were very interested and contacted Chen Yusheng to inquire about investment matters. In this way, there was basically no need to worry about the start-up capital of the dance troupe.
The leadership of the figure skating team and the Sports Bureau are also very supportive. After all, the dance troupe established by Ji Tiantian can make more people understand and support figure skating, which is beneficial in all aspects and can drive economic benefits.
Ji Tiantian was busy with training, so she handed over the recruitment of ice performers to Chen Yusheng. Chen Yusheng went to the south city and selected a group of dance school graduates with good skating skills with Coach Ma, and then led them to the capital.
During this period, Ji Tiantian has been preparing for two ice dance programs for this season. This time, she and Tang Yi decided to leave Clara and the ice dance school, refer to Xu Chi and Jiang Lin's opinions, and complete the choreography and practice of the two programs by themselves.
Going to an ice dance school and hiring a choreographer is a big expense, and the national team will bear most of it, but the athletes themselves also have to bear some. In order to make up for the expenses, some athletes will participate in international competitions as much as possible, especially the grand prix with rich prize money.
This season, Ji Tiantian has to balance her studies and the company's affairs, so she can't run the entire season like she did in the past and participate in every competition, so she can save as much as she can. She will choreograph by herself instead of hiring a choreographer.
The competition program was almost ready, so Ji Tiantian took Tang Yi to start rehearsing the ice dance drama. Xu Chi and Jiang Lin understood that they were making a contribution to figure skating, so they naturally gave their full support.
The dance troupe's ice performers they recruited, as well as retired active athletes who were invited to make friendly appearances, joined the rehearsals one by one according to the plan and their respective schedules.
The actors they recruited into the dance troupe received monthly salaries, while other guest performers would be paid based on the number of performances they performed. As the leading actors, Ji Tiantian and Tang Yi would also receive a share of the proceeds from subsequent performances.
In September, the National Figure Skating Grand Prix began.
In January 2016, the 13th National Winter Games will be held. The Winter Games are held every four years, and the qualifying competition for this Winter Games is not the National Championships, but the National Figure Skating Grand Prix. The National Figure Skating Grand Prix has always been less famous than the National Championships, and the Sports Bureau also wants to use the Winter Games Qualifying Competition as an excuse to increase the Grand Prix's reputation.
The Winter Games was a very important competition, and its qualifying rounds were also very important. Ji Tiantian thought it would be bad to be absent, so she and Tang Yi took time out to participate together, and in the end, she and Lin Aili took first and second place respectively.
For Ji Tang, who won the Winter Olympics bronze medal and is China's number one ice dancer, it is not difficult to get the first place in China. If nothing unexpected happens, they will also go to the Winter Games to compete with Lin Aili's team.
Then, Ji Tiantian and Tang Yi started their university studies one after another. While taking care of their studies, they also practiced their programs and rehearsed their dance dramas.
For them, rehearsing a ballet is another way to practice skating and will not interfere with the competition. The teachers at the dance academy also gave Ji Tiantian a lot of suggestions on choreography.
During the ballet rehearsals, Ji Tiantian continued to absorb experience and improve the choreography of the competition program in preparation for the subsequent World Championships.
In November, the land dance drama "Swan Lake" choreographed by Chen Yusheng and the ice dance drama "Swan Lake on Ice" choreographed by Ji Tiantian were performed one after another.
Swan Lake on Ice is adapted from the ballet of the same name on Earth. The first performance will be held at Tang Yi’s ice rink.
Thanks to Tang Yi's efforts, the auditorium has expanded from 400 seats to 600, but this seems far from enough.
The tickets for the show were sold out on the first day of sale, and the auditorium was packed with people for the first performance.
Before the show began, Ji Tiantian and more than 40 ice dancers participating in the show changed their clothes in the dressing room.
This time, Yu Sha and Gao Zhe, who are pair skating, as well as Ning Huai and Ye Yidong, who are men's and women's singles skating, will participate in the performance.
"Tiantian, are you okay?" Ye Yiddong, who was wearing a pink round TUTU skirt, asked Ji Tiantian.
Ji Tiantian, who was wearing a pure white swan TUTU dress, couldn't help but turn her head to look at her. Unconsciously, Ye Yidong had grown up, but she still had the fierce aura she had when she was a child.
"If you need help during the performance, just tell me." Ye Yidong said with a cold and arrogant look on his face, "I don't have anything else to do anyway, and I will stand by after the performance."
"I see." Ji Tiantian smiled and nodded, "Thank you."
"Actually, Yidong has always admired you and always tells others that you are awesome." After Ye Yidong left, Ning Huai, dressed as an Arab prince, came over and spoke to Ji Tiantian.
In the blink of an eye, Ning Huai has grown up, and his eyes and brows already have the calmness of an adult man.
Ji Tiantian thought of the way he first saw Bingwu's nosebleed, and couldn't help but chuckle. "I know, thank you for coming." Ji Tiantian said softly.
"It's okay. Helping each other is what we should do."
Soon, the first ice dance show of the Busy Dancing Troupe began amid everyone's anticipation.
The lights dimmed, the crystal ice surface gleamed, and Tchaikovsky's beautiful music sounded leisurely.
Thirty girls in white swan dresses skated onto the ice together, forming six neat rows. Following the music, they lifted their legs lightly behind them, performed swallow-style balancing steps, and gracefully waved their arms, like a group of swans playing on the ice.
They changed their formation, lined up in a line, and then formed a circle. The beautiful dance moves, coupled with the changes in formation, are a feature that can only be seen on ice dance drama, line skating.
Amidst the applause, the swans on the ice slowly dispersed to both sides. Wearing a princess crown and a white gauze dress, Ji Tiantian appeared in the center of the ice rink.
Facing the cheers, Ji Tiantian smiled. She leaned back, raised one leg, and performed a Biellmann spin with the knife. Her two legs almost formed a straight line in the air.
Wherever the light falls, she is like a swan with her neck stretched out, showing off the beauty of her curves.
"Ah ...
"She looks more curvaceous than when she was little! She has really grown from a little swan into a swan princess!"
Amid cheers, Ji Tiantian led the other swan girls to continue dancing. She changed her steps lightly and exchanged feet in unison with the team on the ice.
Then, the prince played by Tang Yi appeared.
In the quiet night, the prince found the beautiful Swan Princess. He danced with the princess in the night, and the prince lifted the princess up lightly.
Ji Tiantian rested her hips on Tang Yi's shoulders, extended her arms backwards, and began to rotate under Tang Yi's support.
The other swan girls faded away, and only Ji Tiantian and Tang Yi were left on the ice. They spun and danced to the beautiful music, drawing rounds of applause.
In the second half of the ballet, the prince's royal family held a ball to select a princess for the prince. The prince, queen and king sat on the edge of the ice, watching the princes and princesses from other countries come on stage one by one.
Ning Huai and Ye Yidong, who played the role of the foreign prince and princess, and Yu Sha Gaozhe took the stage one by one. They performed triple jumps and throw jumps one after another, which drew warm applause and cheers from the audience.
High-skill jumps also mean a great expenditure of physical energy. Single and double skaters cannot perform for a long time. After they each performed for more than ten minutes, the black swan played by Ji Tiantian slid onto the ice again.
She was wearing a black dance dress, with thick smoky makeup, and she exuded an aura of determination to win.
"Sweet! Sweet!" The audience cheered.
In the ballet, the villain, the devil, in order to prevent the love between the swan princess and the prince, lets his daughter pretend to be the swan princess and transform into a black swan to come to the ball to seduce the prince. Usually, the white swan and the black swan are played by one person.
Ji Tiantian performed the cheerful Black Swan variation, changing the 32-turn whip turns into twists. She spun rapidly along the diagonal line on the ice, trying to keep every beat steady.
As she spun, she waved her arms like wings, and her black TUTU skirt blossomed like a gorgeous flower on the cold ice.
Amidst the applause, Tang Yi lifted Ji Tiantian up. The black swan stepped on the prince's legs and did a vertical split in the air, with one slender leg supporting the skates and pointing straight into the air. Ji Tiantian showed a seductive smile to the audience.
Today, the young girl has grown up, with eyes and eyebrows that can captivate the soul. Everyone on the ice has witnessed her growth.
There was a burst of surprised cheers from the audience.
"Sweet sugar! Sweet sugar!"
"Together! Together!"
Everyone cheered enthusiastically.
"It seems like you've danced Black Swan before." Lin Aili's dance partner, Brother Bianzi, asked Lin Aili in the audience.
"Yes, I was very satisfied with that program, but I lost to Tiantian in the national championships. However, I lost with a sincere heart." Lin Aili couldn't help but smile in admiration, "Tiantian is really good at acting in any role."
The one and a half hour dance drama ended in the blink of an eye. Amid warm cheers, Ji Tiantian and Tang Yi led all the performers to salute the audience.
Ji Tiantian and Tang Yi panted, raised their hands high with a smile.
Although there were group dances and single and double skaters to share the pressure of the performance, as the leading actors, Ji Tang and his buddy had to skate from beginning to end, so it was impossible for them not to feel tired.
At this time, they were sweating profusely and had no energy to speak for a while. But fortunately, the performance was very successful. The audience praised it very much. After the performance, they took photos with the actors and left reluctantly.
As one of the main leaders of the dance troupe, Ji Tiantian saw off all the audience and performers before preparing to go home.
Maybe it was because of the extra thank-you segment, the first ice show was much more tiring than the rehearsal. Ji Tiantian felt weak on her feet, and Tang Yi suggested helping her to the subway station, and she didn't refuse.
The lively and dreamy performance ended, and Ji Tiantian returned to reality again. The wind on the road was cool, but Ji Tiantian felt that her chest was unusually hot. A heart was beating strongly in her chest.
Ji Tiantian couldn't help but turn her head and look at Tang Yi beside her. Although he didn't often express himself, he was always firmly by her side, supporting her when she needed it most.
"Tang Yi, I suddenly remembered that in my previous life, I seemed to have mentioned to you that I wanted to do an ice dance drama." Ji Tiantian pursed her lips. But at that time, she just wanted to be a behind-the-scenes person, not the protagonist of an ice dance drama like now.
"You bought this ice rink in the first place, didn't you do it for me?" Ji Tiantian paused, thinking that she was overthinking, an ice rink costs so much money. So she immediately continued, "I'm just guessing, don't laugh at me..."
"You guessed right." Tang Yi glanced at Ji Tiantian who was suddenly absent-minded, and couldn't help but let out a very low laugh, "I know you can succeed."
Because she was too tired, Ji Tiantian's mind was a little fuzzy. She blinked slowly. Tang Yi's laughter echoed in her ears, making her heart beat uncontrollably faster.
There were many things about Tang Yi that she didn't understand, but one thing was certain.
That is, in this life, she has broken away from the status of a fan girl and is on an equal footing with him, but she still feels that he makes her heart beat.
She had already made the decision that if this feeling continued, she would tell him her feelings.
But now didn't seem like the right time to express her feelings. She was sweating profusely and her tongue was a little clumsy.
"Tang Yi, let's talk after the National Championships." She started to speak. After thinking about it, she decided to talk after she was done with this busy period. If the talk was unsuccessful, it would not affect their partnership and thus affect the results of the competition and the performance.
"What do you want to talk about?" Tang Yi's voice was still cheerful. "You want to get more money? No problem."
“…I don’t love money to this extent!”
Ji Tiantian went home and had a good sleep. When she woke up, she couldn't wait to log into Weibo and search for "Swan Lake on Ice". Then she saw many audiences who had watched the show were praising it.
"If you like sweets, don't miss Swan Lake on Ice! It's a sincere work!"
"Wow, sweet black and white swans are so pretty!"
"Brother Tang is working so hard, sliding and lifting the whole time! Ahhhh, if he didn't have a sweet girl in his heart, he wouldn't be able to hold on for an hour and a half of dance drama!"
"Ahhh, I bumped into it!"
“This is the support of love!!”
After that, Ji Tang performed several more performances of Swan Lake on Ice at their ice rink. The performances were sold out and tickets were hard to come by. The popularity on the Internet continued to rise.
“Ahhhh I can’t buy a ticket!”
“When will Sweetie go on a national tour?”
"Can we perform in a bigger place? There aren't enough seats!"
There was a cry of grief on the Internet.
Many media also reported on "Swan Lake on Ice", both domestically and abroad.
"China's miracle duo JT began to actively engage in ice performances after winning the bronze medal at the Winter Olympics. According to audiences who have seen the show, the performance was a perfect blend of ballet, team skating, single and double skating, and ice dance. Unfortunately, tickets for the performance were limited and we were unable to go to the scene to watch. Like everyone else, we look forward to JT bringing the thrilling ice love song to more people in a bigger place." - A comment published in the world-renowned magazine, International Figure Skating Magazine.
It's not that Ji Tiantian doesn't want to perform in a bigger place, but a bigger place means more expensive theater rental and performance costs. For the time being, Ji Tiantian decided to perform at Tang Yi's ice rink and accumulate popularity at the same time. Because of limited energy and the need to take care of training, they can't increase the number of performances. But there is no doubt that when they have the energy in the future, they will definitely go to a bigger place.
Ji Tiantian occasionally guest-starred in Chen Yusheng's Swan Lake on land, playing a role for about ten minutes. The ice and land were linked, and the popularity of the dance troupe soared. Every performance was profitable, and it quickly entered a virtuous cycle. Ji Tiantian began to make money slowly, and the costs she had paid before were slowly recovered.
In December, the largest figure skating event in China, the National Figure Skating Championships, is coming.
Before arriving, Zhang Lilian handed Ji Tiantian a bunch of brand new door keys.
"Tiantian, I didn't have time to give you anything for your 18th birthday, but now I have time to make up for it." Zhang Lilian touched Tiantian's head and said, "Mom and Dad pooled their money to buy you a loft apartment, which is not far from your training ground and the ice rink where you perform. I've been to see it, the scenery and decoration are nice. It's also very quiet. You will definitely like it."
"You...you bought a house without telling me?" Ji Tiantian's eyes widened for a moment, "Why didn't you call me?"
"You're busy, aren't you? And mom knows you're very strong-willed and want to do everything yourself, so I quietly made a decision for you." Zhang Lilian smiled, "You're grown up now, you have your own ideas, you can make money, and you don't need mom anymore. Mom will go back to South City, and your dad just got a promotion recently, so he can't leave. He's been staying in South City alone, and it's pretty lonely."
Ji Tiantian looked at the key in Zhang Lilian's hand and didn't say anything for a while. She slowly realized that Zhang Lilian was leaving.
This is natural. Zhang Lilian came to the capital just to accompany her and take care of her. Now that she has grown up, Zhang Lilian is going back to the south city to live her own life. Before leaving, Zhang Lilian left her a small house.
It was definitely not easy to adapt, but Ji Tiantian couldn't say that she didn't want her mother to leave. After all, everyone has their own life.
Without her mother's company, she will sail forward alone.
"This house is in my name, but if you don't like it, you can sell it. Mom just wants you to focus on your career and not worry about renting a house. The location of our current house is not good, so you can give it up after I leave." Zhang Lilian put the key to the loft in Ji Tiantian's palm, "Mom will come to see you often. If you want to sell the house, you can just come over and sign the contract."
Ji Tiantian nodded silently, and then gave Zhang Lilian a grateful hug. After finishing another day of training, she went to visit the LOFT that Zhang Lilian bought.
When you open the door, a sea of pink comes into view.
Zhang Lilian quietly decorated the entire house for her baby daughter, making it look more like an exquisite coming-of-age gift.
The curtains, carpets, quilts and pillows are all pink with delicate lace edges. The furniture is also carefully selected, and it looks like a little princess's residence.
In Zhang Lilian's eyes, Ji Tiantian has always been her little princess.
Ji Tiantian walked slowly into the room while looking around, and saw a conspicuous pink photo frame on the dining table. Inside was a photo of Zhang Lilian and Ji Tiantian. When the photo was taken, Ji Tiantian was still very young, and it was the first time she wore pointe shoes. Little Tiantian held the pointe shoes in her hands and smiled happily in her mother's arms.
Ji Tiantian hugged the photo frame and couldn't help crying. She was lucky to be Zhang Lilian's daughter. She would keep jumping with this luck.
Afterwards, Ji Tian bid farewell to Zhang Lilian and concentrated on preparing for the competition. Soon after, the National Championships arrived.
Because figure skating events have rapidly become popular in China in recent years, the four figure skating events in the National Championships have begun to be divided into adult and youth groups and are no longer mixed together.
The competition venue was unprecedentedly lively, with more contestants coming to compete than ever before.
"Sister Tiantian!" When going to the competition venue to draw lots, a familiar voice called Ji Tiantian.
Ji Tiantian looked in the direction of the voice and saw Qiao Menghan, the little ice child who had given her Melody. Now, she had grown up.
"Sister, I'm 13 years old this year, and I'm here to participate in the youth women's singles competition." Qiao Menghan smiled at Ji Tiantian, "If I win, I can go to the World Youth Championship."
"Then you have to work hard!" Ji Tiantian looked at Qiao Menghan with satisfaction.
In the end, Qiao Menghan performed very well. She landed the triple jump steadily without any mistakes and won the women's singles championship in the youth group.
As the most dazzling dark horse of this season, many local media rushed to interview Qiao Menghan and asked her how she achieved such outstanding results.
"In fact, when I was training as a kid, I also thought about giving up." Qiao Menghan smiled sweetly in front of the camera, "But when I thought of sister Tiantian, I decided to hold on a little longer. She made me realize that there is nothing impossible in this world. On the court, any miracle can happen."
After the youth group competition, it was the adult group competition. As expected, Ji Tiantian and Tang Yi won first place in the adult group, and Lin Aili's group won second place.
When she stepped onto the podium, Ji Tiantian couldn't help but look at the pair standing on the third place podium. Ji Tiantian had an impression of Qin Nian, the female partner of the pair.
In the previous life, Qin Nian was Tang Yi's fourth dance partner.
Ji Tiantian remembered that in his previous life, Tang Yi, who had a very bad luck with dance partners, had five dance partners in total.
After the first partner suffered from anorexia and took a rest, the second partner Qian Xiyue took over. Qian Xiyue left because she could not adapt to the technical movements of ice dance, and then Tang Yi changed to the third partner, Lin Aili. In the previous life, Lin Aili was not as determined as she is now, and suffered from family disputes. After working with Tang Yi for four years, she went to the UK. Then, Tang Yi welcomed his fourth partner, Qin Nian.
Looking at Qin Nian's face so close to her, Ji Tiantian suddenly remembered some things she had forgotten before.
In her previous life, she had seen a post by an ice fan discussing Tang Yi and Qin Nian on a figure skating forum.
"I went to see the open practice, Qin Nian was crying the whole time. I heard her arguing with Tang Yi, it seemed that she had confessed to Tang Yi before and was rejected. The coach advised Tang Yi to give it a try with Qin Nian, anyway, Tang Yi's skills are stable now, and he won't have big ups and downs because of a relationship. But Tang Yi said firmly that it's not possible, because he has someone he likes." She vaguely remembered that the post said so.
Ji Tiantian remembered that she saw this post when she was about 18 years old in her previous life. The post was very popular.
However, Qin Nian quickly adjusted his condition and won the eighth place in the World Championships with Tang Yi. This was also Tang Yi's best record in his previous life.
After that, Tang Yi and Qin Nian continued to interact normally in public as if nothing had happened. Gradually, no one talked about the entanglement between Tang Yi and Qin Nian during the public practice. Ji Tiantian also gradually forgot about it.
At this moment, Ji Tiantian thought of the post for no reason, and waves of emotion began to stir in her heart.
In his previous life, before going on a blind date with her, did Tang Yi actually have a girl he liked?
The author has something to say:
